About Authy
Authy generates TOTP codes on Android and iOS with optional encrypted backups tied to a phone number and a backup password, so tokens can be restored on a new device. Twilio retired the desktop applications, leaving the mobile apps as the supported clients.
Strengths
- Encrypted backup and multi-device sync, which many authenticators lack
Limitations
- Desktop applications were retired; only mobile is supported
- Account recovery is tied to a phone number, which is a known attack surface
